And ‘Student strike’? Really? Did you perhaps mean ‘student protest’? A strike is when you withhold your productive labour, not when you decide to cut class.

Yes, a good ol’ protest is always fun, but what are they going to change? It’s not like every student in that crowd is going to transfer to another school if their demands aren’t met.

Students rallied on the Quad and eventually marched across campus and occupied Mrak Hall, the UC Davis administrative building. The march was largely led by English Professor Jonathan Glover, who wrote a piece about the Occupy movement here: http://lareviewofbooks.org/post/12736956288/seize-the-ponies.
